the other ally in the middle east being israel. so for the president to come out and say, well, he's not exactly sure if egypt is an ally anymore but it's not an enemy, that is a significant change in the perspective of washington toward this country, the biggest country in the arab world. it makes one wonder, well, was it worth it? was it worth supporting the arab spring, supporting the demonstrations here in tahrir square, when now in tahrir square there are clashes going on behind me right in front of the u.s. embassy. you can see now teargas coming -- that teargas being fired into a crowd of demonstrators who are trying to get close to the u.s. embassy which is at the end of that street and throw rocks at the u.s. embassy. a very different scene here, a very different egypt. before, when the united states, president obama, was supporting the demonstrators here, president mubarak was in power -- and egypt was very much an ally. now, the president doesn't seem to be sure if egypt is an ally anymore. and some demonstrators who the

israel said enough is enough. the president has clearly stated as rightly he should, that hamas' behavior in ghana is unacceptable. was the israeli response appropriate? >> the israeli response was appropriate and far less violent than would be justified. the principal of proportionality in international law does not mean that you have to do only what the other side did. it means your response must be limited to what is proportional to the necessity to stop the aggression. the aggression is the firing of rockets. whatever is necessary to get hamas to do that is legal under international law. >> eliot: it is also worth repeating that israel's first strike was against known terrorist leader and subsequent strikes are against missile launching entities themselves is hamas getting more aggressive because it has greater support from egypt? do you see that correlation? >> i think one has to assume that. i think there are some other groups now to hamas' more extreme flank that are pressing it. that they're under some pre

this is about both allies, israel and the united states, not just about israel and not just about the united states. and that's why our policy is not to contain iran but to prevent it from acquiring a nuclear weapon. [ applause ] >> now you've heard a lot of loud talk about iran, and you will hear a lot more in the coming months. this "look talk" of war as president obama describes it has an unintended effect. it benefits the iranian government by driving up the price of oil which they depend upon to fund their nuclear program. it's ironical, but there it is. so for the sake of israel's security, america's security, and the peace and security of the world, our approach has been differe different. we believe now is the time to speak softly but carry a big stick. to let our increased pressure sink in. to sustain the broad international coalition that we have built and to engage iran in good faith as the window for diplomacy shrinks. and it is shrinking. because the united states and israel both assess that iran does not yet have a nuclear program and let me assure you that we are exceed
